CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishThe growth mechanism of thin Ge1-xMnx/Ge(100) diluted magnetic semiconductor films have been studied by reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) technique and correlated to the structural and magnetic properties of the films provided by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE), respectively. The RHEED analysis evidenced a transition from a bi-dimensional to a three-dimensional growth mechanism at deposition temperature, T-G, lower than 433 K while XRD characterization showed a polycrystalline structure with Ge grain size depending on T-G. At low T-G (343 K) all the Ge1-xMnx films behaved superparamagnetically, while at T-G = 433 K hysteresis loops were observed, with a maximum Curie temperature of approximate to 250 K, for 0.027 < x < 0.044.
